Adrian Lewis and Jose Antonio Justicia Perales had to be separated after their Quarter-Final game at the UK Open Qualifiers in Wigan. It was a game where Lewis won in a deciding leg but it will be marred by the problems between the pair throughout the match.
Towards the end of the match, there was the first altercation between the pair with Lewis stopping the Spaniard visibly annoyed including shouting some expletives at the new tour card holder so this wasn't a past problem between the pair.
The tension intensified after the game where Lewis seemingly had physical contact with Perales. The two players even had to be separated by tournament officials.
It remains to be seen if Lewis or Perales will face ramifications from the DRA. Whether that is a warning, ban or a fine for either player but for Lewis he did not go further in the tournament losing to Michael van Gerwen after the victory over Perales.

- @UndartedWaters I totally agree with your thoughts! I totally respect Kirk but in this instance I was disappointed with his lack of crowd control. I even turned to my husband and said "Could you imagine this happening if Russ Bray was the referee tonight? At least there would have been a crowd admonishment- Ladies and Gentleman please." I so felt for Mike DeDecker...MamaVenus15-11-2024
- Many fans had a sour taste in their mouth by the end of this match. Mike was cruising to victory, playing beautiful darts, when the whistling started in earnest, particularly on his doubles. You could see in Mike's face that it was really affecting his concentration. The referee should have asked for order, just to show that the whistling is unacceptable, and Luke Littler could also have done his part to quieten down the crowd instead of "taking full advantage.:" I put that down to his age though. He needs some good advice on this from his management team and/or more seasoned players. It's got to be about who's best on the night, not who is being harassed by the crowd. Luke Littler played well to get back into the game and win, but it was a hollow victory. If he goes on to win the tournament, that triumph too will be tainted because of this match.
UndartedWaters15-11-2024 - Agree. Van der voort will be the one taking a break when he loses his tour card. Everyone saying about how bad Wright's last 18 months have been, and in that time he's won several Euro tours and the European Championships.Matilda6215-11-2024
- When Littler has at least five ranking Majors he’s in the discussion, until then, forget it.Mysstree14-11-2024
- This is the difference between other players and Phil Taylor. Phil would be completely motivated even before his walk on and didn't need anything else to do so.richieburnettrocks14-11-2024
